Method

  1. In a deep bowl, add the flour, oats, and baking soda and mix well.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg with the vanilla, then add the sugar and oil.
  3. Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture.
  4. Add the chocolate chips and stir the mixture with a wooden spoon.
  5. Chill the oatmeal cookie mixture in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes.
    Timers: 20 min
  6. After the time has passed, shape into circles and place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, then press them down slightly.
  7. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 10 minutes.
    Timers: 10 min
  8. Let the oatmeal cookies cool to room temperature before decorating them with sugar paste.
  9. Knead the sugar paste ingredients on a smooth, clean surface, adding a little icing sugar so the dough doesn't stick.
  10. You will get a soft sugar paste. Rub a little vegetable shortening on your palm from time to time while kneading.
  11. When the dough is finished, cover it immediately so it doesn't dry out.
  12. Food coloring can be added according to the shape we want. In this recipe, we added orange coloring to the sugar paste and shaped the cookies like small pumpkins.
  13. We kept a little of the sugar paste and added green food coloring to form the pumpkin leaves.
